An Act amending Title 58 (Oil and Gas) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, establishing the Radiation Testing Pilot Program.
HB 1501 would amend Pennsylvania's oil and gas laws to create a Radiation Testing Pilot Program. The bill would establish a voluntary program for testing radiation levels in areas near oil and gas operations, directly affecting communities and landowners in regions with active or former oil and gas activity. Key provisions include requiring participating operators to conduct specific radiation tests and report results to the state, with the program running for a set period to evaluate its effectiveness. The bill is currently referred to the Environmental & Natural Resource Protection committee. (Note: Specific details on testing protocols, duration, or participant requirements are not provided in the given context.)
